ALlSOS, cosisting of fiat, rolling and mesa
lands The soil Is of an even, rich sandy
loan, free from alkali and sand and suitable
alike for the culture Of fruit, vines and all
cereals. II is watered by numerous springs
and streams, which, like all California wat
ers come to the surface in different portions
of the ranch, and which offer splendid oppor-
tunities for the storage of winter water at
slight expense.
No section in Southern California offers
chance for a town site equal to this. 1t has
two guaranteed stations upon the line of the
A. T. & S. F. r. r. to San Dieo, which is al
ready graded through the ranch at the center
OF the town site. The Southern Pacific has
also laid out their line to San Diego along the
lower end, on the old San Diego road. The
town site Is elevated above the surrounding
cent panorama of the Santa Ana and San
Juan valleys, the ocean and the beautiful
Santiago mountains, rising but a few miles
away along the northern boundary. 1t is a
spot most fitting for a colony, lying just. ten
miles from Santa Ana, fifteen miles from
San Juan-by-the-Sea, eight miles from the
Laguna and Arch beach, and the same dis
tance from Newport and ocean transporta-
tion. The mountain ranges in the rear shut
off the hot desert winds coming down the
Santa Ana canon, and defects them towards
the north and west. The elevation secures
immunity from the fogs and frosts of the
lower lying and adjacent valleys. 1t is well
timbered with oak sycamore, cottonwood,
willow and elder trees. Water from wells
can be obtained anywhere on the ranch at
depths of from to 40 feet. At the old adobe
ranch house Is a vineyard over 80 years old,
still bearing, and an orchard of fruit and
olive trees, some of them two feet in diane
ter, grown and still in bearing without irri-
CATION Some distance from the ranch house
lies the famous Sancal Grove and picnic
grounds, which, with its magnificent trees,
is the finest in Southern California. At one
or two places on the ranch are indications of
coal oil and lime. The celebrated actress,
Madame Mojeska, whose summer house ad.
joins this property, prOnounces its views and
climate to be unsurpassed in all Southern
California, and predicts for it future like
that of Pasadena.
